Hailing from a small town in NSW, Amy picked up a guitar and taught herself to play and started writing songs at the age of 13. With influences ranging from Sarah McLachlan, The Waifs, Clare Bowditch, Edie Brickell and Joni Mitchell, Amy has carved her own unique style from a blend of folk, roots and pop music.

Since moving to Tasmania in 2005, Amy has been captivating Hobart audiences with her sweet, soulful voice, flowing guitar melodies and honest, down-to-earth songwriting style. Now a regular at venues across Tasmania, Amy has become a familiar face on the original music circuit, both in Hobart and across the state.

In 2006-2007 Amy held a residency at one-time Sandy Bay establishment Gilt Cafe and
Restaurant, charming Friday night audiences and fostering a diverse and healthy music
community through a variety of local support acts. She has also worked her magic on many a
delighted punter at The Republic Bar, Alleycat Bar, Telegraph Hotel, Taste of Tasmania, CBar @ Waterfront Hotel, Lark Distillery, Maginty’s (Burnie), Brookfield Vineyard, D’Art Factory, Tasmanian Inn and many other local venues.

In 2008 Amy was joined by Tore Pedersen on bass guitar, and Andrew Smyth on percussion, with plenty of help from her friends for the recording of ‘Hot Stars in a Cold Sky’ EP. This was released in November 2008 to a standing only crowd at the Alley Cat Bar in North Hobart.
